"Jeremy Corbyn calls for 'magic circle' to be broken in a plea for popular politics

Jeremy Corbyn has called for the "magic circle" of Westminster to be broken and the views of "ordinary people" to be heard, as he addressed thousands of Labour supporters at the final leadership rally before the ballot papers go out.

The party leader said he would encourage "decision-making for the millions not the millionaires" as he spoke at the event in Ruach City Church in Kilburn, north London."

Amazing stuff. The Establishment and the 172 are totally despondent, and their mood was not improved when they read Dan Hodges's devastating deconstruction of Owen Smith, the 172's last hope. Some of the 172 are possibly already thinking of throwing the towel in and of how to gracefully ingratiate themselves to Corbyn and his team.

"DAN HODGES: Spineless, incoherent, incompetent - and how Owen Smith's house of cards is collapsing.
...
His [Owen Smith's] skill as a media performer was demonstrated on Wednesday, when he tried to boast of his pivotal role in the Northern Ireland peace process. When this John Terry-style glory-hunting fell flat, he tried to further embellish his credentials in international conflict resolution by announcing he would happily sit down for talks with Islamic State.

Whereas most Labour politicians content themselves with waving the red flag, Smith opted to wave a black one. An hour later Corbyn’s camp issued a statement distancing themselves from his stance, leaving Smith the only person in British political history to be outflanked by Jeremy Corbyn on the issue of national security.

The 172 haven't got a clue what to do to stop Blockbuster Corbyn, as the classic Sweet 70s hit, Blockbuster, said.

They're not happy, not happy at all, the 172 and the Establishment, when they read what Corbyn said. This wasn't the way it was meant to be when they were studying politics at university.

"The principle of democracy has to be ground up," he said, as he urged supporters to vote to re-elect him as Labour leader.

"It is about breaking open this magical circle of Westminster, some of our great universities, Whitehall and the boardrooms who try to control thinking, control ideas and control the way policy is developed."

Mr Corbyn said the "magic circle of decision-making" meant the views of "ordinary people" were ignored.

"We need to have decision-making made for the millions and not the millionaires," he said."
